My car has always adhered pretty closely to the following math:
1/4-mile = 1/8-mile * 1.55
So, if your car follows that rule of thumb, 8.3 * 1.55 = 12.865.
1/4-mile = 1/8-mile * 1.55
So, if your car follows that rule of thumb, 8.3 * 1.55 = 12.865.

8.54 at 82.45mph.....(#'s before converter+exhaust+DR's)
BEFORE converter, exhaust, or DR's. 8.54 at 82.45mph with lid, other than that stock car A4 '98 T/A on street tires, at very high elevation.
Seems like something is up with his car to me.
